Non-Traditional Ceremony Songs

angandmike05

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to see if anyone else is walking down the aisle to a non-traditional song? (traditional song examples: bridal march, canon in d, etc.)

I am walking down the aisle to Bach's Air on the G String. Very relaxing, romantic piano song. How about you?

I'm using "From this Moment" by Shania Twain.  However, I'm a bit trepidatious about moving away from the traditional music.   My recessional is featuring Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (the version played at the end of Meg Ryan's "50 First Dates" movie.   I'm interested in hearing what others are doing as well.

I'm so glad to read that someone else is using With a little help from my friends, I have really been driving myself crazy thinking that it is to up-tempo for a wedding, but Joe Cockers version is way too long! Thanks so much!

I'm walking down to
Nightswimming - intstramental by Vitamin String Quartet.  I know it's odd, but it's one of my favorite songs by REM.

I'm planning on using the instramental version of Somebody to Love by Vitamin String Quartet (it's a Queen song).
